The Corporate Yoga Revolution: “Lend an open ear” Tony Baker with FitGroupUSA
Tony Baker was able to use the marketing skills and community to build his own fitness business, FitGroupUSA. He eventually grew out of the model with his entrepreneurial spirit, but had a lot of gratitude for the family he was able to cultivate from the CPY community. He differentiates himself from the CPY lineage by listening to his community and acknowledging their feedback with a reason for why or why he can’t take their suggestion. Like everyone I spoke with, the low pay for managers and teachers was a problem. It’s a systemic problem: we as a culture don’t value education. Tony’s business contracts with fitness professionals at a rate 3-6 times what CPY pays its employees. They offer everything from chair yoga to qi gong to hula-hooping.
